Hymnal for Church and Home (2nd ed.) ‎#278

278. Glory To God On High!

1 Glory to God on high!
Let earth and skies reply,
"Praise ye His name!"
His love and grace adore,
Who all our sorrows bore;
Sing aloud evermore,
"Worthy the Lamb!"

2 While they around the throne
Cheerfully join in one,
Praising His name--
Ye who have felt His blood
Sealing your peace with God,
Sound His dear name abroad,
"Worthy the Lamb!"

3 Join, all ye ransomed race,
Our Lord and God to bless:
Praise ye His name!
In Him we will rejoice,
And make a joyful noise,
Shouting with heart and voice,
"Worthy the Lamb!"

4 Soon must we change our place,
Yet will we never cease
Praising His name:
To Him our songs we bring;
Hail Him, our gracious King;
And through all ages sing,
"Worthy the Lamb!"
